Xiao Long wanted to get up and leave, but it was too late. Lai Qianxiu's huge body appeared at the door. Her eyes were fierce, and the waitress hurriedly got out of the way. Lai Qianxiu walked into the room without saying a word and stood in front of Xiao Long.
Lai Qianxiu's eyes were red, her facial muscles were stiff and bluish. "Hand over the woman..." she stammered: "Hand over the woman, where is she hiding?"
The frail waitress was so frightened that she hid aside.
"What are you talking about?" Xiao Long tried hard to hide his guilt and retorted: "What woman? Where is she? Stop talking nonsense! Sit down quickly."
Lai Qianxiu still stood and kept scanning the room. Fortunately, there was only wine and food for Xiao Long on the table.
"What are you doing here?" Perhaps because she noticed that there was only one set of utensils, she finally sat down. She usually pays special attention to the matching of her clothes, but the dress and belt she wore today were very inconsistent. She must have come out in a panic.
"It's just drinking." Fortunately, the cup used by Long Zhu was packed away, and Xiao Long gradually felt at ease.
"You can't be drinking here alone, you must have brought a woman with you!" Lai Qianxiu stared angrily and shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Xiao Long replied: "I'm feeling depressed and want to find a quiet place to have a drink. As for whether I brought a woman with me, you can ask her." As he said that, Xiao Long pointed to the waitress beside him.
Although the waitress was very scared, in order to cooperate with Xiao Long, she still walked over and answered tremblingly: "Madam, it's true, the dean came alone today."
Lai Qianxiu glanced at the waitress contemptuously: "Humph! Of course you businessmen have to speak for your customers. Don't treat me like a fool. You hid a woman and lied to me, so I will find out the evidence and show it to you."
She suddenly stood up and ran from the room to the end of the corridor to look through the shoe cabinet. There was the thumping of things being turned over in the distance, mixed with the dissuading voice of the waitress.
Xiao Long had already guessed that Shi Yunfeng did this. When he was on the phone with Long Zhu before leaving the hospital tonight, Shi Yunfeng rushed in. "Are you going to chase Long Zhu this time?" she asked angrily.
There was another sound of footsteps in the corridor, and Lai Qianxiu came back. Of course she didn't find anything.
Lai Qianxiu glared at Xiao Long menacingly. The waitresses stood horrified behind her, unable to intervene in the dispute between the two, so they could only stand in the corridor and watch in fear. While Xiao Long was drinking, he was wary of Lai Qianxiu and pretended to be calm.
"Where did you hide the woman? Tell me! I already know it. Even if you team up to lie to me, I have evidence. Hand her over quickly!" Lai Qianxiu roared.
"Okay, calm down." Xiao Long sat down and answered her, "Don't embarrass yourself here."
"Who is the embarrassment?" Lai Qianxiu said with a cry: "You have the nerve to bring other women to the place where we often come. That's why you are embarrassment!"
Shi Yunfeng didn't know this, so he probably just said that Xiao Long went to see another woman. Lai Qianxiu came here based on intuition. It seems that Shi Yunfeng did not mention Longzhu, she just wanted to cause some trouble for Xiao Long.
Xiao Long regretted it. Even if it was inconvenient, he should have chosen elsewhere. However, Dragon Ball's escape is now something to be thankful for. It is true that if there is no woman present, things will be easier to handle. Thinking of this, his tone became tougher, "Since you care so much, then just search it."
"Yes, that's what I want to do!" Lai Qianxiu shouted while looking around the room. She suddenly rushed to the bathroom and opened the door violently. The waitresses held their breath and watched in silence.
Lai Qianxiu found nothing in the bathroom and came out to check the bed again. She lifted the quilt and saw the white sheets spread flatly. She squatted beside the bed, ignoring the waitress beside her, smelling like a dog. Lai Qianxiu didn't ask anything, so she felt relieved. She stood up, sat back angrily in front of the table, and let out a long breath.
"Bring some water." She ordered the waitresses who were watching the excitement, and the waitresses immediately left the room as if they had been granted amnesty.
"How are you? Are you convinced?" Xiao Long drank wine and pretended to care about Lai Qianxiu.
Lai Qianxiu was silent angrily, still dubious, but because no evidence was found, she was somewhat relieved and her eyes softened. The waitress brought a glass of water, which she drank in one gulp. The water droplets leaked along the corners of her mouth. She sighed again as she put the cup back on the waitress's tray as it flowed down her double chin.
"Humph, what you said is unreliable." Although she said this, her attitude was much better than before.
"Don't keep thinking wildly. Isn't it embarrassing?" Xiao Long said.
"Who am I like this because of?" Lai Qianxiu glanced at Xiao Long. However, her excitement had calmed down.
"Stop talking about that, come and have a drink." Xiao Long handed over his wine glass and she snatched it. Xiao Long smiled and picked up the wine bottle and filled it with wine. Lai Qianxiu drank it all in one gulp. Then he stretched out the wine glass without saying a word. Xiao Long silently filled it up for her again.
"How are you? Are you relieved?" He took the opportunity to ask.
"Still can't believe you." She shrugged.
"How is it not worthy of your belief?"
"Isn't it covered with bedding?"
"That's the practice of this store." Xiao Long responded calmly: "I don't know when the waitress laid it, but if something happened, the bedding wouldn't be so neat, right?"
"Have you run away already?"
"Don't be silly. You came so suddenly. How could you come in time?"
"Then you're going back first, right?"
"Hey, enough is enough. Haven't you confirmed it with your own eyes and smelled it yourself?"
Lai Qianxiu put her elbows on the table and held her cheeks in her hands.
"I said." Xiao Long observed Lai Qianxiu and gently comforted him: "How could I bring other women here? Even if I want to bring them, they won't come to a place you know, right?"
"You are so thick-skinned, who knew!" She still held her face and made a fuss like a child.
"Don't be awkward. The misunderstanding has been solved. Don't be angry. It's already very late today. Why not relax here and have a couple of drinks." Seeing Lai Qianxiu's silence, Xiao Longrang stayed in the corner of the room and was in trouble. The waitress brought another wine glass, and the waitress quickly agreed and left.
"Do you know why I'm drinking here alone?" Xiao Long changed his tone.
"how could I know?"
"Don't be like this, listen to me, okay? The hospital is in a difficult situation now. If it can't raise money in the short term, I'm afraid it will go bankrupt, so I want to discuss it with you." This is the plan that Xiao Long just came up with. Lai Qianxiu rushed over in a rage of jealousy. Obviously, this shrewd strong woman had lost her judgment because of her excitement.
Xiao Long wanted to use this opportunity to ask her for money. He felt that in the current situation, talking about this matter was the most effective. Lai Qianxiu was still thinking deeply with his face raised, wondering if he heard Xiao Long's words.
"How's it going? Do you have any idea?" Xiao Long was about to speak calmly when Lai Qianxiu suddenly reached out and grabbed Xiao Long's face. Unfortunately, the nails she had just trimmed were very sharp. Xiao Long had no time to guard against it, and he felt pain like acupuncture on his face.
"Hey, stop grabbing, stop!" Xiao Long pushed her hand away.
"Ah! I'm so angry, you bad guy!" Lai Qianxiu shouted, lying on Xiao Long's knees and crying. Xiao Long patted her shaking shoulders, a smile quietly appeared on his face.
Xiao Long felt groggy. It was almost dawn when he returned home. His head ached, probably due to lack of sleep. When he walked into the dean's office, he sat in front of the table and smoked in a daze. He couldn't cheer up. All he could think about was what happened last night.
Chief Migu came in. He has a mustache and is very tall. He used to be obedient to his orders, but recently he has become a little rude. Xiao Long knew that if the hospital's operating conditions continued to deteriorate, the administrative staff would gradually look down on him.
You don't need to listen to know that the purser is here to report the deficit.
"Drug dealer Du Ping requires half of the payment to be paid in advance. What should we do?" The purser knew all too well about the debt issues between both parties.
"When are we required to pay?" Xiao Long looked unhappy.
"I said I must pay them before the day after tomorrow." Mi Gu's secretary also replied with a straight face.
